2013 Chevrolet Traverse complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 20 MPH, AND THE TRACTION CONTROL, STABILITRAK, AND ENGINE POWER REDUCED WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE WOULD VIBRATE VIOLENTLY AND FAILED TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND FAILURE CODE: P1682 (IGNITION 1, SWITCH CIRCUIT 2) WAS FOUND. THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: [XXX]. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

ON ALL OCCASIONS, MY CAR WAS IN MOTION ON MAJOR CITY STREETS AND SIDE ROADS AND MY DRIVING SPEEDS RANGED FROM 25MPH TO 55MPH. THE FOLLOWING MESSAGES FLASH ACROSS THE DASHBOARD: TRACTION CONTROL OFF, ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL, SERVICE STABILITRAK. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WITH THE STABILITRAK ICON. MY SPEED WAS THROWN DOWN TO THE RANGE OF 10MPH TO 40MPH. THE ENTIRE CAR BEGAN SHAKING AND THE EXHAUST PIPE WAS GIVING LOUD "PUFFING" SOUNDS. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THE THIRD TIME, I WAS NOT ABLE TO RESTART MY CAR. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM. AFTER HAVING IT FOR A MONTH, THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND THE ISSUE, THEREFORE NOTHING WAS FIXED, AND I WAS TOLD "LET US KNOW IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN." WOW! ...AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN MONTHS LATER - AGAIN THREE SEPARATE TIMES! AGAIN, THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY RECEIVED NO "ERROR MESSAGES" FOR THAT ISSUE, ONLY FOR MY CAR ALARM BEING FAULTY. GOOD GRIEF! HAD I BEEN ON A FREEWAY DURING ONE OF THESE OCCURRENCES, I WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED AND INTO A BAD ACCIDENT; BUT "WE'LL JUST SEE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN!" I OFFERED THE DEALERSHIP VIDEO AND PICTURES AS PROOF OF THE ISSUE, BUT NOTHING HAS YET BEEN DONE. I HAVE A VIDEO THAT LASTS 1MIN AND 11 SECONDS, BUT ITS TOO LARGE FOR ME TO UPLOAD (EVEN WHEN I SHORTEN IT DOWN TO A MINIMUM 25SECONDS TO GET THE GIST OF THE ISSUE).

HAVE HAD MY VEHICLE IN DEALER TO FIX AIR BAG LIGHT SEVERAL TIMES AND IT IS STILL ON. MY WIFE WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE AIRBAGS SHOULD OF DEPLOYED AND DIDN'T. LUCKILY SHE WAS NOT INJURED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, A RATTLING NOISE WAS HEARD EMERGING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE "BATTERY CHARGING SYSTEM NEEDS SERVICE" MESSAGE APPEARED. THE CONTACT NOTICED A PULLEY LYING ON THE GROUND UNDER THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER (JACK WILSON CHEVROLET IN SAINT AUGUSTINE, FLORIDA, 904-797-4567) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE BOLT THAT HELD THE PULLEY FOUND ON THE GROUND HAD FRACTURED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 88,000.

FRONT WIPERS DON'T WORK WE HAVE CHANGED FUSES THAT DIDN'T WORK THIS WAS FOUND OUT AS WE WERE GOING TO DRIVE AND HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING TO NO GOOD

THE AIRBAG LIGHT RANDOMLY TURNS ON AND OFF. MORE FREQUENTLY NOW. MY VIN NUMBER DOESN NOT FALL UNDER THE RECALL THAT WAS SENT OUT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED STALLING WHILE BEING OPERATED AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED WITH CASE NUMBER: 8-3794078576 AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED WITH JBA CHEVROLET (7327 RITCHIE HWY, GLEN BURNIE, MD) TO GET THE FAILURE DIAGNOSED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED PRIOR TO THE MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V614000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 57,000.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR STARTS ALARMING AND I GET A MESSAGE THAT SAYS SERVICE STABILITRAK, ENGINE POWER REDUCED, TRACTION CONTROL OFF. THIS CAUSES MY VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN AND I HAVE VERY LITTLE CONTROL WHILE DRIVING IN SNOW. I USE THIS AS A FAMILY CAR, HAVE HAD IT CHECKED OUT AT A CHEVY DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT IS A SENSOR IN THE GAS PEDAL. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE, HAS THERE BEEN A RECALL YET? CHEVY SHOULD BE FIXING THIS, MY FAMILY AND I COULD BE IN DANGER, I AM GOING TO REPLACE THE GAS PEDAL AND SEE IF THE ISSUE PERSISTS, HOWEVER IF IT DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER GM CAR AGAIN.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR IT WAS MAKING NOISES, I TOO IT TO AUTOZONE TO GET A FREE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK. IT WAS READING THAT MY TIMING WAS OFF. I WENT BACK HOME PARKED THE CAR 2 DAYS LATER CALLED THE DEALERSHIP IN WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED TO HAVE THEM PICK IT UP AND RUN A DIAGNOSTIC ON IT, I STILL HAVE TIME UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD TIMING CHAIN IS OFF, BY THE DEALERSHIP THEY ARE FAILING TO GET IT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY STATING THAT I HAVE NO BEEN MAINTAINING THE VEHICLE. CALLED A LOCAL MECHANIC TO GET NEW ENGINE PRICING, HE TOLD ME THAT THE ENGINE BY THE MANUFACTURER HAD TO BE UPDATED BECAUSE OF PROBLEMS WITH THE TIMING CHAIN. WHICH IS THE CURRENT ISSUE I AM HAVING NOW.

ON OCT 25 OF LAST YEAR WE WERE INVOLVED IN A ACCIDENT WHERE WE HIT A CAR BROADSIDED DOING ABOUT 30 MPH CAUSING CONSIDERABLE DAMAGE TO OUR CAR, BOTH MY WIFE AND MYSELF HAD TERRIBLE WHIPLASHES. AND I BELIEVE THAT SOME OF OUR PAIN COULD HAVE BEEN PREVENTED IF THE AIR BAGS WOULD HAVE DEPLOYED WHICH THEY DID NOT DO. WE WERE ON 4 LANE DIVIDED ROAD GOING THROUGH THE TOWN OF CHIEFLAND FL. WE WERE PASSING A SEMI TRUCK WHICH WAS SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A TURN WHEN A VEHICLE CAME ACROSS THE FRONT OF THE TRUCK AND CONTINUED TO COME INTO OUR LANE WITH NO REGARDS TO STOPPING AND WE HAD NO CHOICE OR TIME TO STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROET TRAVERSE. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE TRACTION, ENGINE, AND SERVICE STABILITRAK WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GEORGE MORRE CHEVROLET (10979 ATLANTIC BLVD, JACKSONVILLE, FL 32225) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MOTHERBOARD NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, MONTHS LATER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO GEORGE MORRE CHEVROLET, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

BATTERY KEEPS DRAINING. BATTERY WILL CHARGE AND THEN WHEN THE CAR SITS, SOMETHING IS DRAWING POWER OUT. THE CD PLAYER AND NAVIGATION CYCLE CONSTANTLY.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN I HEARD WHAT SOUNDED LIKE AN EXPLOSION AND IT TURNS OUT MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. IT SHATTERED INTO HUNDREDS OF LITTLE PIECES BUT LUCKILY IT DID NOT FALL THROUGH.

ENGINE/DRIVETRAIN > ENGINE POWER REDUCED AT 70 MPH MILTSTIPEK 01:12 PM 09-05-2017 I WANT TO REPORT A VERY DANGEROUS AND SAFETY HAZARD THAT WE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED WITH OUR 2013 LTZ TRAVERSE. ON JULY 23,2017 MY WIFE AND I WERE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 80. DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE LANE GOING 70 MPH. ALL OF THE SUDDEN BELLS WERE RINGING AND DASHBOARD ALERTS LIT UP. (TRACTION CONTROL OFF, SERVICE STABILITRAK,ENGINE POWER REDUCED) OUR SPEED WENT FROM 70 MPH TO 10 MPH IN SECONDS. THE TRAFFIC BEHIND US WERE SWERVING ALL AROUND US TO AVOID A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. WE WERE LUCKY NO ONE WAS KILLED. WE WERE FINALLY ABLE TO GET OFF THE ROAD INTO A TRUCK WEIGH STATION. OUR TRAVERSE WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST CHEVY DEALER IN FRANKFORT,IL. LOW AND BEHOLD THERE WASN'T ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL OR THE STABILITRAK. WE WERE TOLD THAT THE CODES WERE FOR THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP AND SENSOR. THE ECM SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE THREE PROBLEMS ROUTED TOGETHER. THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF ALERT FOR THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP BEFORE IT IT A PROBLEM AND THE ENGINE SPEED DROPPED. THE ECM SHOULD BE REPROGRAMMED SO THAT IT DOES NOT DROP THE SPEED DOWN THAT FAST. PLEASE GET THIS FIXED BEFORE THERE ARE MAJOR FATALITIES! GM YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! (THIS IS ANOTHER PERSON WITH COUNTLESS OTHERS WITH THIS EXPERIENCE - FIX IT OR YOU WILL HAVE THEIR BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS) DO THE HONORABLE THING PLEASE!

WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY TRACTION CONTROL OFF LIGHT CAME ON THE ENGINE SPEED REDUCED CAME ON AND CAR IMMEDIATELY WENT FROM 60 MPH TO 15-20 CAUSING ME TO SPIN OUT AND LOSE CONTROL ON FREEWAY AND EVENTUALLY SLAMMED INTO SIDE OF ROAD, (MANAGED TO DRIVE HOME GOING ABOUT 15 MPH AT 1:00 IN THE MORNING)BENDING MY AXLE AND THE NEXT DAY ON THE NEWS IT WAS REPORTED CARS WITH ONSTAR WERE HACKED. NEXT MORNING NO LIGHT WAS ON IN THE CAR AND ABLE TO DRIVE WITH BENT AXLE. REPAIRS COMPLETED AND MY INSURANCE RATES WERE INCREASED. ONE YEAR LATER LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN TRACTION CONTROL OFF THEN ENGINE SPEED REDUCED AND CAR WENT FROM 40 TO 15 (LUCKILY I JUST GOT OFF FREEWAY GOING TO WORK) ON SURFACE STREET AND MANAGED TO MAKE IT TO WORK. CALLED CHEVROLET DEALER AND WAS TOLD MANY DIFFERENT THINGS. WAS TOLD THAT PARTICULAR LIGHT COMES ON WHEN ANYTHING GOES WRONG WITH THE CAR TO PREVENT FURTHER DAMAGE TO "THE CAR" BUT PUT LIVES AT RISK. CHECKED THE CHEVROLET FORUM AND THIS HAPPENS QUITE OFTEN AND PEOPLE SAY GET RID OF IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND DON'T USE IT AS A FAMILY CAR BECAUSE IT CAN STALL ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS FEATURE SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM ALL VEHICLES. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A PRIVATE RECALL ON THE 2011 EQUINOX THROTTLE BODY, SHAME ON CHEVROLET, SHAME ON ONSTAR!

SERVICE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED ABOUT 9 MONTHS AGO. THE ISSUE WAS REPORTED BY DEALER AS WIRE HARNESS UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE THAT WAS REPLACED AND WELDED. NOW SAME ISSUE AFTER 9 MONTHS AGAIN (SEPTEMBER 2017) SERVICE LIGHT COME ON AGAIN AND DEALER TOLD ME IS THE SAME ISSUE BUT NOW IS UNDER THE PASSENGER SIDE. MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY UNDER 71K MILES. REALLY CONCERN I HAD THESE TWO EVENTS. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE SEAT WIRE HARNESS CREATING THE SAME FAILURE MODE. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE WIRE HARNESS? BOTH ISSUES WERE NOT COVERED BY GM. THEY STATED THAT ONLY IS COVERED UNDER BUMPER TO BUMPER LIMITED TO 36K MILES. I ISSUED A CONCERN WITH GM AND GAVE ME THIS NUMBER TO RECORD THIS CONCERN 8-3308753301 HOWEVER THE SOLUTION IS THAT I NEED TO TAKE CARE SINCE IS OUT OF WARRANTY.

SERVICE STABILITRAC, TRACTION CONTROL OFF, ENGINE POWER IS REDUCED, SERVICE TRACTION CONTROL. THE VEHICLE WILL NOT DRIVER MORE THAN 30 MILES PER HOUR. DEALER AND OTHER SERVICE SHOPS HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY CODES. IF YOU TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON IT WILL WORK FINE AND IT CAN BE WEEKS OR EVEN MONTHS BEFORE IT HAPPENS AGAIN. IN SEARCHING THE INTERNET THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUE IN DIFFERENT BLOGS, THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS YOU CAN LOSE POWER WHEN DRIVING IN A HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH. SEE THIS YOUTUBE VIDEO WHICH SHOWS THE ISSUE.

DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT CONTROL PANEL IS GOOD; HOWEVER, THE LIGHT WEIGHT PLASTIC FRAMING IT SNAPS INTO IS BROKEN IN A COUPLE OF PLACES. I HAVE TRIED TO GLUE THE BROKEN PLASTIC PIECES SO THAT THE CONTROL PANEL WILL SNAP BACK INTO IT. WE ARE SENIOR CITIZENS AND ARE NOT OVER WEIGHT AND CAN NOT IMAGINE WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED IT. NOT THAT IT MATTERS, WEE HAVE 55,651 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND WE PURCHASED IT NEW FROM A DEALER. WE PAID CASH FOR THE TRAVERSE AS WE ARE LIFE LONG GM CUSTOMERS AND BELIEVE IN THE PRODUCT. WE ARE NOT LESS A BELIEVER NOW BUT I AM CONCERNED AS THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THAT WHEN THE PANEL HANGS OUTSIDE OF THE SEAT, PANT LEGS, PURSE STRAPS, ETC. DO CATCH ON IT AND AT OUR AGE THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED BEFORE ONE OF US GETS HURT, NOT TO MENTION THE BAD APPEARANCE OF THIS BEAUTIFUL PRODUCT. PLEASE LET US KNOW THE ALTERNATIVES AND HAVE A GREAT DAY. THE PROBLEM WAS FIRST NOTICED ABOUT EIGHT MONTHS AGO BUT WE HAVE TRIED TO SUPER GLUE THE FRAME BACK IN PLACE SINCE THAT TIME.

I WANT TO REPORT A VERY DANGEROUS AND SAFETY HAZARD THAT WE RECENTLY EXPERIENCED WITH OUR 2013 LTZ TRAVERSE. ON JULY 23,2017 MY WIFE AND I WERE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 80. DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE LANE GOING 70 MPH. ALL OF THE SUDDEN BELLS WERE RINGING AND DASHBOARD ALERTS LIT UP. (TRACTION CONTROL OFF, SERVICE STABILITRAK AND ENGINE POWER REDUCED) OUR SPEED WENT FROM 70 MPH TO 10 MPH IN SECONDS. THE TRAFFIC BEHIND US WERE SERVING ALL AROUND US TO AVOID A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

THE ECM SHOULD NOT HAVE THESE THREE PROBLEMS ROUTED TOGETHER. THERE SHOULD BE SOME SORT OF ALERT FOR THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL PUMP BEFORE IT IS A PROBLEM AND THE ENGINE POWER REDUCED SHOULD NEVER BE USED. PLEASE GET THIS FIXED BEFORE THERE ARE MAJOR FATALITIES!

PASSENGER AIRBAG IS ENABLED WHEN A MINOR WEIGHT (SUCH AS A SMALL BACKPACK, OR LAPTOP) IS PLACED IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I FIRST REPORTED THIS WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THE DEALER REFUSED TO ADDRESS IT, SAYING THAT THERE IS NO WEIGH UNDER WHICH THE AIRBAG SHOULD BE DEACTIVATED. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS NOT THE CASE, AND THAT A LIGHT WEIGHT ACTIVATING THE AIRBAG IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE.

RANDOMLY WITHOUT WARNING MY TRAVERSE WILL COMPLETELY LOOSE POWER. IT DOES THIS WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, AND ALSO WHILE IDLING IN PARK.

ENGINE LOSS. DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, IN SLOW LANE GOING TO EXIT, WHEN WE LOST STABILITY, TRACTION, ENGINE POWER REDUCED, TILL THERE WAS NO POWER. GOT IN A PARKING LOT, BY SLOWLY ROLLING DOWN HILL, THANK GOODNESS. WOULDN'T START BACK UP. WE WENT AND ATE, WHEN WE CAME BACK IT STARTED AGAIN LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. GOING TO WORK LAST WEEK, SAME THING. AT LEAST I HAD GOTTEN OFF THE HIGHWAY. THERE IS NO WARNING YOU LOOSE POWER. GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED.

WHILE EXITING A STORE PARKING LOT ONTO A CITY STREET, AT NIGHT, GOING APPROX. 40MPH , I HAD MY 3 YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE AND MY SUV SUDDENLY LOSS POWER. IT SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY, IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, WITH OUT WARNING. LUCKILY THE CAR BEHIND ME SEEN WHAT WAS GOING ON AND DID NOT REAR END ME. I TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE UP AND IT WANTED TO TURN OVER BUT COULDN'T. THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT STARTED TO SMELL OF GASOLINE. THE PEOPLE IN THE CAR BEHIND ME, HELPED ME BY PUSHING MY CAR OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC INTO A PARKING LOT. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AND HAD THEM TOW MY TRUCK TO MY HOUSE SINCE THE DEALSHIP WAS ALREADY CLOSED. THE NEXT MORNING, THEY TOWED IT TO THE NEAREST CHEVY DEALERSHIP. THE FOLLOWING DAY THE DEALER DIAGNOSED IT WITH A FUEL PUMP FLOW CONTROL FAILURE, AND TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $ 965.00 TO REPAIR. I HAVE ONLY OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 6 MONTHS, AND IT ONLY HAS, 70,000 MILES, WITH A MANUFACTURE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY STILL. SO I CALLED GM, AND COME TO FIND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL AS MY SUV, FOR THE SAME PROBLEM/PART, BUT BECAUSE THE RECALL IS VIN SPECIFIC, GM WILL NOT PAY FOR THE REPAIR. I PUT IN A SERVICE REQUEST AND HAVE SPOKEN TO 7 DIFFERENT PEOPLE, WITH 1 SUPERVISOR ADVISING ME THAT THEY WERE GOING TO CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP AND SEE WHAT THEY COULD DO TO HELP GET IT FIXED. THAT WAS 4 DAYS AGO, NEVER HEARD BACK FROM ANYONE. I CALLED TODAY AND THE LADY I SPOKE WITH, SAID THERE WAS NO NOTES INDICATING THAT ANYONE WAS WORK

I COUNTINUE TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON AND SERVICE STABILITRAK AND THEN REDUCED ENGINE POWER. THIS ERROR COME UP MULTIPLES TIME A WEEK IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AS THE VEHICLE LOSES ENGINE POWER AS A RESULT OF THIS ISSUE RESULTING IN REDUCED SPEEDS ETC. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE YET TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES A SIMPLE SEARCH OF THE INTERNET WILL REVIEWS FORUM UPON FORUM ABOUT THIS KNOWN ISSUE

I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING PUMP ON MY VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD IT REPLACED 6 TIMES NOW IN A TOTAL 6 MONTHS, I HAVE A NEW ON E PUT IN IT AND IT GOES OUT IN A FEW DAYS. THE RACK N PINION HAS BEEN REPLACED AS WELL. I NEVER LOOSE ANY FLUID THE PUMP STARTS MAKING A SQUEALING NOISE AND THEN GOES OUT. I BELIEVE THERE IS A ISSUE WITH THIS PUMP, THE DEALER NEEDS TO LOOK TO THIS. THEY WILL NOT COVER THIS AT ALL, EVEN I HAVE THE BURDEN OF PROOF THAT IS NOT MY FAULT AND IT KEEPS GOING OUT.

POWER STEERING HOSE LEAKED AT CONNECTIONS AT JUST A FEW YEARS OF AGE AND AT LOW MILES (40K). CHEVY PROCEEDS TO TELL ME IT'S A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND HOPE FOR ME THAT IT'LL BE A RECALL SO I CAN GET MY HUNDREDS BACK IN REPAIRS FOR A SMALL SIMPLE JOB, RIDICULOUS, SINCE IT LEAKED QUITE A BIT ON THE FLOORS, AND DOWN A HOT MOTOR, WHICH COULD POTENTIALLY DISRUPT POWER STEERING AS WELL AS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. JUST LOVE THAT MY PREGNANT WIFE DRIVES THIS DEATH TRAP EVERYDAY. GM WONT HELP SINCE I AM A SECOND OWNER, AS THEY PRETTY MUCH TELL ME THEY TREAT CUSTOMERS WHO PURCHASE THEM NEW AND/OR CERTIFIED WITH BETTER CUSTOMER SERVICE. IF THE DEALER TELLS ME IT'S SUCH A COMMON ISSUE THAT THESE POWER STEERING HOSES ARE BACKORDERED, THERE IS A DESIGN FLAW WITH THE CONNECTIONS AND GM NEEDS TO STAND UP TO KEEPING THEIR CUSTOMERS SAFE RATHER THAN WORRYING ABOUT THEIR POCKETS!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WERE VARIOUS ELECTRICAL SHORTS PERTAINING TO THE LOW BEAM LIGHTS, THE INTERIOR LIGHTING, AND THE GAUGES ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES SEVERAL TIMES, BUT WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT WAS WAITING FOR A REMEDY FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO PROVIDE A SOLUTION TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE EQUIPPED WITH GOODYEAR FORTERA HL TIRES, SIZE: P255/R265/18 (NA). WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE TIRE EXPLODED WITHOUT WARNING. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE TREAD WAS DETACHED FROM THE TIRE. THE TIRE WAS REPLACED WITH ANOTHER TIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE TIRE WAS THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT. THE DOT NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE VEHICLE AND TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 32,000.

DRIVING TO WORK AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE LIGHT PANEL TELLS ME ENGINE POWER REDUCED TRACTION CONTROL OFF AND SERVICE TRACTION. I DIDN'T HAVE THE TRACTION ON. TURNED AROUND WENT HOME. CAR SOUNDS HORRIBLE. TURNED IT OFF LET IT SIT. LIGHTS GONE BUT SCARED TO DRIVE IT. WILL HAVE IT LOOKED AT BUT DOESN'T SOUND GOOD. SINGLE MOM AND LIVE PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK WHO WORKS EVERYDAY. WHAT AM I GOING TO DO.

CAR STALLS WHILE IDLING. THE RPM'S AND THE BATTERY GAUGE GO UP AND DOWN WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY. IT HAS ALSO BEEN WARM AND COLD WEATHER. THE CAR WILL REDUCE SPEED ON IT'S OWN WHILE THIS IS HAPPENING. THE VEHICLE DRIVES ROUGH AND THE ENGINE SOUNDS HARSH. ORIGINALLY ENGINE LIGHT CODES OF P0174 AND P0171 CAME ON AND DEALERSHIP CLEANED AIR FLOW. NOW NO CODES AND DEALER ISN'T ABLE TO ALWAYS RECREATE. I HAVE BROUGHT TO DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES FOR SAME ISSUE. OWNED VEHICLE LESS THAN 90 DAYS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND FAILED TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT THE DETAILS COULD NOT BE PROVIDED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,500.

DRIVING MY 2013 CHEVY TRAVERSE ON THE HIGHWAY 65MPH STABILITY TRAC LIGHT COMES ON REDUCED ENGINE POWER MESSAGE SERVICE STABILITY TRAC MESSAGE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN TO 20MPH IN ABOUT 20 SECONDS COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT RESULTING IN SEVER INJURY OR DEATH TO MYSELF AND YOUNG CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH ON US-59 IN MY 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE LTZ , THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE, FOLLOWED BY A RAPID, UN-CONTROLLED DECELERATION, LOSS OF POWER, AND LOSS OF STEERING. THIS WAS WHILE DRIVING ON A STRAIGHT ROAD, AND NO SURFACE IMPEDIMENTS SUCH AS RAIN, SNOW, SLEET, ECT.. THE ISSUE WAS "STABILITRAK! AS A 30 YEAR, CAREER LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER WHO INVESTIGATED THOUSANDS OF ACCIDENTS, THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND MY FAMILY AND I ARE VERY LUCKY TO BE ALIVE. I ALSO FOUND THERE IS A LONG HISTORY OF THIS GOING BACK TO AT LEAST 2010. THIS SAME VEHICLE HAS HAD THE REAR A/C FIXED 4 TIMES AND MYLINK SYSTEM FIXED 2X.

I WAS DRIVING WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I GOT AN ERROR MESSAGE FOR LOSS OF TRACTION CONTROL AND SERVICE STABILITRACK. ADDITIONAL MESSAGE, ENGINE POWER REDUCED BUT WAS STILL ABLE TO DRIVE BUT AT A DECREASED SPEED. I WAS ABLE TO INCREASE SPEED BY USING RPM GAUGE AND SHIFTING TRANSMISSION BY PRESSING AND RELEASING ACCELARATOR TO SIMULATE MANUAL SHIFTING. I EVENTUALLY PULLED OVER OFF THE ROAD, TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED. EVERYTHING APPEARED TO RETURN TO NORMAL UNTIL IT HAPPENED AGAIN THE FOLLOWING DAY WHILE DRIVING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. GOT AN OBD SCAN AND CODES WERE P2122 AND P2138. ADVISED THIS WAS A RECALL IN THE 2010 MODEL- HOW IS IT STILL HAPPENING IN MODELS THREE YEARS LATER? DOESN'T APPEAR IT WAS SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVED AND NOT A COVERED REPAIR THAT IS SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS. THIS IS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS EVENT AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR DEATH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V118000 (AIR BAGS). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000.

CAR TURNED ITSELF OFF WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH ON HIGHWAY WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR. TRAVERSE RANDOMLY SWITCHES BETWEEN CD AND RADIO BY ITSELF. TRACTION CONTROL WARNING SOUNDS RANDOMLY. SOMETIMES WHEN KEY IS TURNED OFF ALL GOES BLACK ON DASH WITHOUT OPENING THE DOOR. THERE IS NO PATTERN TO ANY OF THIS. ALWAYS TOTALLY RANDOM. I HAVE STARTED PRESSING RECORD ON MY PHONE BEFORE EVERY TIME I START MY CAR FOR THE POSSIBILITY THAT I WILL CATCH ONE OF THE RANDOM INSTANCES ON CAMERA. DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED MY RADIO FOCUSING ON IT AND IGNORING MY TRACTION CONTROL ISSUE AND POWER LOSS. SINCE THESE ISSUES CANNOT BE TRIGGERED AND ARE COMPLETELY RANDOM I HAD TO CATCH MY RADIO FREEZING UP ON VIDEO TO GET DEALER TO BELIEVE MY ACCUSATIONS. MY CAR HAS BEEN "REPROGRAMMED" TWICE, NEW RADIO INSTALLED, REPAIRED INFORMATION BUTTONS ONCE, THEN INFORMATION BUTTONS REPLACED AND EACH TIME TELLING ME THAT ITS ALL FIXED NOW. WELL, I NOW HAVE VIDEO THAT PROVES DIFFERENTLY. SO WHEN IS THE NEXT TIME MY CAR IS GOING TO SHUT OFF? WILL MY CHILDREN BE WITH ME OR WILL IT ONLY BE A RISK OF THEM LOSING THEIR MOTHER??

THE FUEL GAUGE STARTED FLUCTUATING AT FIRST AFTER GOING FROM DRIVE TO PARK. THE FUEL GAUGE READING WOULD BE OFF ANYWHERE FROM 1/8 TO 1/4 OF A TANK. THE FIRST PROBLEMS WERE THE GAUGE UNDERCOMPENSATING FOR THE ACTUAL FUEL IN THE TANK, THEN OVERCOMPENSATING, NOW IT GOES BACK AND FORTH. NOW THE PROBLEM IS NO LONGER LIMITED TO WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK, I NEVER KNOW HOW MUCH FUEL I HAVE WHILE I AM DRIVING. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. IT IS AN ONGOING DAILY PROBLEM

I WAS IDLING AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I GOT AN ERROR MESSAGE FOR LOSS OF TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITRACK. MY ENGINE THEN COMPLETELY LOST POWER. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTARTED. MY CAR GOT ME THROUGH THE INTERSECTION WHEN IT IMMEDIATELY HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS WAS A RECALL IN THE 2010 MODEL- HOW IS IT STILL HAPPENING IN MODELS THREE YEARS LATER?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE, POWER TO THE ENGINE DIMINISHED, TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR APPROXIMATELY TEN MINUTES AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR WAS STILL ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON THREE OTHER OCCASIONS AND WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER EACH TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED ON THE THIRD VISIT WITH AN UNKNOWN DIAGNOSIS AND WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

WIFE WENT TO PARK CAR IN DRIVEWAY BETWEEN GARAGE & STREET AND WHEN EXITING THE CAR, THE CAR BEGAN TO ROLL BACKWARDS. SHE TRIED TO GET BACK INTO CAR AS 2 GRAND KIDS WERE IN THE BACK SEAT. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO GET IN, THE CAR DOOR KNOCKED HER DOWN & THE CAR CONTINUED TO ROLL INTO STREET UP ON NEIGHBORS FRONT LAWN ACROSS THE STREET. SHE WAS KNOCKED UNCONSCIOUS AND SUFFERED BRUISES UP & DOWN HER RIGHT SIDE WHEN I RETRIEVED THE CAR, FOUND IT IN "PARK" & ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. KEYS WERE STILL IN IGNITION BUT IN OFF POSITION. DRIVEWAY HAS A SLIGHT DOWNGRADE BUT NOT WHAT I CONSIDER SIGNIFICANT. NEIGHBOR HAD OUTSIDE CAMERA WITH AUDIO BUT DID NOT HAVE VEHICLE IN PICTURE. IT DID HAVE AUDIO OF CAR GOING CLICK, CLICK, CLICK, CLICK, CLICK, ETC. AS IT ROLLED BACKWARDS TILL IT CAME TO A STOP. VERY FORTUNATE IT DID NOT COLLIDE WITH ANYTHING BEHIND IT OR ANY TRAFFIC CROSSING STREET AS WOULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS. WIFE WAS TAKEN TO HOSPITAL AND REQUIRED FOLLOW-UP VISITS WITH SPECIALIST & ALSO HAD A RETURN VISIT TO HOSPITAL WITH COMPLICATIONS FROM HER CONCUSSION. DEALER FOUND INTERMITTENT BINDING IN PARK PAWL LINKAGE AND ADJUSTED SHIFTER CABLE FIRST. COULD NOT DUPLICATE PROBLEM. FURTHER DISCUSSION WITH GM WERE INSTRUCTED TO REPLACE PARK PAWL AND COMPARTS INCLUDING LINK ARM W/SPRING. DID FIND RECALL ON 2014 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE MATCHING DESCRIPTION OF MY EXPERIENCE WITH TRANSMISSION NOT ENGAGING IN "PARK" & ROLLING. INTERESTING THAT THE 2013 WAS THE YEAR THE TRAVERSE WAS REDESIGNED.

THIS IS MY SECOND COMPLAINT I AM FILING, I HAVE A 2013 CHEVY TRAVERSE WITH FORTERA HL P255/65R18 109 TIRES, THE FIRST SET HAD MAJOR CRACKING THAT RAN ALONG THE INSIDE FIRST RIB AND LAST OUTSIDE RIB ALONG THE TREAD, WITH CRACKS THAT RAN HORIZONTAL TO THE WEAR INDICATORS, THE LAST TIME I CHECK THE CRACKS WAS ABOUT 4 MM LONG, THIS AFFECTED ALL FOUR TIRES. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND GOODYEAR MADE IT CLEAR AFTER TWO WEEKS THE ISSUE WE HAD WAS FROM "OZONE CRACKING" EVEN THOUGH THE TIRES ONLY HAD 22,000 PLUS MILES ON THEM AND REFUSED TO REPLACE UNDER THE RECALL, INSTEAD CHARGING ME A $389.00 PRORATED FEE FOR NEW TIRES OF THE EXACT SIZE, NAME AND QUALITY. ON 02 JULY, WHILE OUT MAKING PAYMENTS AND BUYING FOOD I NOTICED A VERY STRONG RUBBER SMELL, I CAME HOME AND THE SMELL HAD INCREASED TO THAT OF A RUBBER BURNING SMELL, I TOUCHED THE TIRES AND THEY WAS SO HOT I COULD NOT LEAVE MY HAND ON THE TREAD. I NOTICED THAT ONE TIRE HAD/HAS A BLUE GREEN COLOR TO IT FROM THE RIM TO THE MIDDLE JUST BELOW THE WORDS GOODYEAR, I ALSO NOTICED THAT THERE APPEARS TO BE WHAT LOOKS LIKE WEAR FROM THE TREAD LINE DOWN TO JUST BELOW THE WORDS GOODYEAR WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE THE TIRE IS RIDING ON THE ROAD ON THE SIDE WALL, OR AS I DESCRIBED IT TO BOTH GOODYEAR AND THE DEALERSHIP IT LOOKS LIKE THEY ARE RAN AGAINST A CURB, OF WHICH WE HAVE NO CURBS IN OUR BLOCK. THESE TIRES ALSO DO NOT MAINTAIN AIR PRESSURE,

I HAVE A 2013 CHEVY TRAVERSE THAT HAS MASSIVE CRACKING AROUND THE WHOLE TIRE BOTH ON THE INSIDE 1ST RIB AND THE OUTSIDE RIB, I FOUND CRACKS RUNNING ACROSS THE WEAR INDICATORS, I NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP WHO AFTER FINDING A RECALL (THE RECALL WAS FOR YEARS NOV 14 TO JAN 15) AGREED THE DESCRIPTION GIVEN BY GOODYEAR FOR THESE TIRES (P255/65R18 1095 FORTERA HL) ASKED FOR THE CAR SO THEY COULD REPLACE THE TIRES. AS OF YESTERDAY GOODYEAR CLAIMS ALL THE ISSUES ARE FROM OZONE CRACKING AND THEY ARE NOT LIABLE FOR THIS, EVEN THOUGH BY DEFINITATION THIS OCCURS ON THE OUTSIDE SIDEWALL NOT THE INSIDE OF THE TREAD OR ACROSS THE WEAR INDICATORS, I HAVE REPEADEDLY ASKED ABOUT THE 6 YEAR WARRENTY THAT IS SUPPOSE TO BE ON THESE AND STILL HAVE NO REPLY, I DO KNOW THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS FILED AGAINST THIS SPECIFIC TIRE FROM 2012 FORWARD FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND EXTREME TREAD WEAR. WITH THE CRACKS RUNNING THE FULL LENTH OF THE TREAD ON THE INSIDE AND THE CRACKS ACROSS THE WEAR INDICATORS THIS CREATES A MASSIVE DANGER IN TIRE SEPERATION OR BLOW OUTS AT HIGH SPEEDS ESPECIALLY IN THE SUMMER.

TRAVELING AT ROUGHLY 55MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED BEEPING. THE CAR CONTROLS BEGAN TO BECOME HARD TO STEER AND WITHOUT WARNING THE SPEED IN SECONDS SLOWED TO 15-20 MPH. THE DASH STARTS REPORTING THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION:ENGINE POWER REDUCES SERVICE STABILITRAK TRACTION CONTROL OFF I PULL OVER SHUT OFF THE CAR AND EVENTUALLY THE DEALER SAYS IT WILL GO AWAY. ITS A NON ISSUE. THEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN AND AGAIN OVER AND OVER AGAIN. THE CODE EVERY TIME IS P2138. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT EVEN THINKS AN EXISTING TSB IS THE ISSUE 11273 BUT SINCE MY CAR ISNT LISTED ON IT. *TR

I TOOK MY CAR FOR SERVICE ON 2/20/2015 AND THE NEXT DAY THE SERVICE AIRBAG LIGHTS CAME ON STAYED ON EVEN AFTER I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. THE NEXT DAY IT DIDN'T COME BACK ON THE FOLLOWING DAY WHICH WAS 2/22/2015 IT CAME ON AND AGAIN AND STAYED ALL DAY. ON 2/23/2015 DIDN'T COME ON AT ALL THEN CAME BACK ON AGAIN ON 02/24/2015 AND REMAINED ON UNTIL I WROTE THIS COMPLAINT. I CALLED MY DEALER AND THEY GAVE ME AN APPOINTMENT FOR 2 WEEKS ON 3/12/2015 IF SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE AIRBAG I'M NOT SAFE AND MY WARRANTY MAY NO LONGER COVER IT AT THAT TIME BEING THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. *JS

WHILE DRIVING THIS 2013 TRAVERSE, IT LOST ALL POWER WITH THE STABILINK AND TRACTION CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS BEING ACTIVATED IN THE MESSAGE CENTER. THEN THE 2013 TRAVERSE LOST POWER WITH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATING, WHEN THIS OCCURRED THE TRAVERSE IMMEDIATELY SLOWED FROM 55 MPH TO 15 MPH CAUSING A REAR END COLLISION. ALL MY ONLINE RESEARCH IN DIFFERENT FORUMS DISPLAYS NUMEROUS OTHERS INCIDENTS OF THIS SAME STABILINK/TRACTION CONTROL ISSUE. IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE A SAFE DESIGN AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ANNOUNCED BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED. *JS

SERVICE AIR BAG SIGNS CAME ON WHEN VEHICLE IS STARTED FROM COLD FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE MORNING. IT ALSO HAPPENED ON 12/06/2014 AND 12/11/2014. I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED N-TENSIONER KIT ON 12/12/2014. THIS MORNING "SERVICE AIR BAG" SIGN CAME ON AGAIN AS SOON AS I STARTED THE CAR. THE SIGN STAYED ON TILL AT LEAST 30 MINUTES. *TR

HI THERE; I AM TALL - ABOUT 6' 5". THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT BELTS, DO NOT FULLY CROSS MY SHOULDER, RATHER THEY ARE CROSSING MY "OUTER" SHOULDER/UPPER ARM. THE "B" PILLAR IS ALMOST FORWARD OF ME. THE SEAT-BELT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT IS FULLY RAISED. I FEEL QUITE UNCOMFORTABLE AND WONDER IF THIS SHOULD BE A CONCERN TO ME (I THINK IT IS!) IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION; I FEEL THAT IN A SUDDEN STOP, LET ALONE A SIDE-IMPACT, I MAY AS WELL HAVE A LAP BELT ONLY!! PLEASE TELL ME I AM IMAGINING THIS AND THAT NHTSA HAS APPROVED THIS CONFIGURATION!! THANKS. *TR
